In this Plan With Me, I’m setting up my personal rings for the week of September 20th–26th, 2021 using the “Cozy Cottage” weekly kit from SarieMae3. It’s such a pretty fall kit—super cool, I love the colors—and I walk you through how I make it work in a smaller rings layout. Since the kit doesn’t include date numbers, I pull in number stickers from Mandilyn Plans because they’re the perfect size for these date covers. I also share how I handle my sidebar with “currently watching/reading,” habit trackers, and checklists (and yes… sometimes things get tight and I have to pivot). I also chat a bit about taking breaks when I need them—last week I just wasn’t feeling it, and giving myself a week off helped me reset without disappearing for a month. For this spread, I layer the bottom washi and then place the dinner stickers on top so you can still see that cute design, plus I add a weekend banner and simple headers to keep my columns separated. Throughout the week I add the real-life stuff: my Tuesday meeting, Etsy design time (new release week on Friday), first day of fall, trash day, payday, therapy, planner prep, filming, cleaning, and—because I’m trying to be better about it—actual “me time.”
